CEO Clips - Lion Copper & Gold Advances U.S. Copper Supply from Nevada

Domestic copper project targets production of 99.99% copper cathode

Why is Lion Copper & Gold developing copper in Nevada?

Lion Copper & Gold is advancing a copper project in Nevada designed to produce 99.99% pure copper cathode for the U.S. domestic market, supported by strategic technology collaboration and favorable permitting pathways.

Copper plays a critical role in the global energy transition.

From power grids and data centers to electric vehicles, copper remains one of the most difficult metals to replace in modern electrical infrastructure.

Lion Copper & Gold is focused on developing a domestic copper supply source in the United States.

The company’s project is located in Nevada, widely regarded as one of the world’s leading mining jurisdictions due to its established regulatory framework and long history of mineral development.

According to CEO John Banning, the broader district surrounding the company’s project hosts more than 30 billion pounds of copper resources within a short distance.

This geological setting provides strong evidence that the region can support large-scale copper production.

Lion Copper & Gold’s strategy centers on producing 99.99% pure copper cathode, a refined copper product ready for direct use in the domestic market.

Producing cathode locally could become increasingly important as the United States looks to strengthen domestic supply chains for critical minerals.

The project also benefits from potential participation in the FAST-41 federal permitting framework, which is designed to accelerate permitting for major infrastructure and resource projects considered strategically important.

Another key element of the company’s development strategy is its strategic agreement with Nuton, a technology company wholly owned by Rio Tinto.

The collaboration focuses on advanced copper recovery technologies that may improve the efficiency and environmental profile of copper extraction.

For investors, copper projects in stable jurisdictions combined with strategic partnerships can help reduce technical and development risk.

Lion Copper & Gold is positioning its Nevada project to contribute to the next generation of U.S. copper supply.
